Yeah fuck these treasonous Yank sympathizers.

Note to all these people: If you are staying in this country but you don't have any allegiance to it, at least have some fucking dignity and don't vote to fuck it all up for the rest of us.

Why ask this question to anyone younger than 30? Of course an 18yo will feel less safe now than 10 years ago...when they were fucking EIGHT and playing Nintendo 3DS in their parents basement.

I feel like the age ranges need to be different for this question, and to do otherwise is almost trying to further the narrative of conservative youth.

The reason I asked is because I feel that you are blaming social democracy and I think you are painting with too broad a brush. Capital should serve the state, the people, not the other way around. Social democracy is in part about strong regulations on capital. We need to stand by that and support it. Throwing it away cedes power to capital.

The framework that is built from the oppression of women, and the challenges that arise from that, does not represent the lived experiences, challenges, or values of men. All too often it diminishes these. To move forward in a spirit of mutual understanding requires a recognition of what matters to men; i.e., what provides purpose and value.

I feel that you may be misunderstanding me. This is exactly about tolerance and acceptance - including acceptance that men and women have different lived experiences that are founded on different fundamental principles of what is important and what provides purpose. Is it really so difficult to accept that men might find purpose or value that differs from women? I don't believe there is harm in acknowledging that, and respecting a healthy understanding of that difference.

What do you believe is the most important issue facing Canada, and how do you feel that Jordan Peterson and people like him are helping conservatives to address this issue?

Peterson is the godfather of woke and DEI obsession. Every time Poilievre says woke, he cements the demise of the CPC. Explain to me just why the fuck any of you care about this nonsense. What does it matter? It has nothing to do with you. If you don't want to change genders, don't do it. The more these stupid issues are brought to the fore, the more the CPC looks like the party of Trump.

The right wing needs to drop these types of people from their team. This is a cancer on conservatism that will only destroy them and everything they claim to protect. As we can see right now in the US.

We desperately need reasonable conservatives.

The problem is that something is missing and it's being filled by angry reactionaries and right wing grifters who prey on the particular insecurities of young men, specifically insecurities around masculine values.

What's missing is a foundational framework for understanding the male experience as distinct yet coequal to feminist theory. A framework that seeks to promote a balanced, respectful dialogue by articulating unique structures, values, and challenges faced by men, in order to offer a lens through which male identity, struggle, and transformation can be understood on their own terms, while upholding - acknowledging - the progress and insights of feminism.

These men feel like they don't have purpose or identity. They need a framework, but unfortunately efforts to define and build such a framework are often hijacked by extremists that just hate women and minorities. Like we see now.

How did social democracy let everyone down?

Yeah but you need to have some sort of industrial policy in place as well - to build infrastructure and subsidize onshoring. He's doing the opposite. He even cancelled the CHIPS Act, which was aimed at onshoring semiconductor production. No company is going to open manufacturing facilities in the US under this enormous economic volatility and without any government help to get started.

He's an abject fucking moron who, I'm convinced, is trying to reset wages and create a class of low paid wage slaves while funeling huge amounts of money to the wealthy. He's certainly going to cause stagflation and astronomical wealth inequality. If he succeeds fucking with interest rates he may cause hyperinflation. If the US loses global reserve currency status, they are proper fucked.

At this point, it can only end one way. Even if he's out of the picture, the damage he's done will last for a generation at least. He may have already torpedoed US economic superpower status.

The US has never celebrated any anniversary of any military branch with a public Soviet-era parade like this. And I assume there will be no marines and no aircraft, since their anniversary does not overlap with the army.

Let's not sanewash this.

I'm pretty sure they dropped their anti-nuclear stance.

But this election is about Canadian sovereignty. Unfortunately, smaller parties will be pushed out for now so that sovereignty can be protected. Once we keep the country and take steps to diversify away from the US, and the CPC kicks out the crazies, we can boot the Liberals and maybe the other small parties (left and right) will be inclined to work together on something groundbreaking, like electoral reform.

 

Big tough oil men turn into limpwristed traitors who knuckle under when Trump calls to them. Fucking embarrassing.

Nationalize the oil already. Get the foreign corporations and their brain dead lackeys out.

Canada desperately needs a national strategic internet constellation.

According to Reuters, Trump is preparing to remove legal status for 240000 Ukrainian immigrants, following which they will likely be deported back to a war zone.

The US continues her slide into global irrelevance, abandoning respect for democracy, the rule of law, and human rights.

It is the duty of the countries that continue to respect democracy and human rights, including Canada, to prevent these people from being forced back into a war torn country.

Edit Still getting the hang of this, created this post without the link to Reuters. Apologies, link added.

 

This is one sample visit to the conservative subreddit. It's an appalling example of the impact of disinformation. When you need to be reminded of who the enemy is and what they think, visit here. You will see that there is no gratitude or mutual respect, and there never was. There was never any concept of mutual benefit. And now, with Trump leading the cult, there truly is no depth to which they won't go, and no decisions from Trump that won't be retroactively justified.

These people are dangerous, and they don't give a shit about any alliances, friendship or partnership. And they control the levers of power.

Edit to add a screenshot. Not sure how to add more, but it doesn't get any better as you go deeper. What's clear is that this relationship is over, and we need to move on.

 

At the first Trump cabinet meeting, he stated his intentions clearly. He restated blatant lies and disinformation, and he won't really be questioned on it from the press or from any US politicians. The US is the enemy of Canada and should be understood as such. Take heed of his treatment of Ukraine - when he noted that they would lose the war without US help - and consider what he will propose when he uses the same argument on us. He makes it very clear in the video.

And very carefully consider which of our political leaders will stand up to Trump when he makes the argument that we need American military in our country to protect us.

 

Edit : Fixed the numbers (showing all voters, with Carney as Liberal leader)

 

Has anyone told him that tariffs require willing trade partners?

Being charitable... I'm not sure this is the best messaging he can go with. He doesn't seem to realize it's over. Most of us are finished with the US and we can't trust them at this point. He needs to start standing up for Canada and presenting a message of strength, independence and unity... Not continuing to offer platitudes and extending olive branches. Frankly, it looks weak, and it doesn't instill any trust that he will do what's necessary when the time comes.

He finishes off with a show of strength that hits all the right notes, but when it comes after the weaselly opening it just seems like too little, too late.
